Cool , the M1 was a complete build I think and not high end but perfectly adequate . Someone on here will have an ad scanned I would think , have you any pics ? ( as to figure how much of it is restorable or needs replacing ? ) .

JimmyP is your man for Mongoose info, I'm sure he has a scan of the M1 ad and I'm certain I saw it posted recently

A lot of original parts and some tasty Z rims (tasty because I love that colour

).

Worth dropping JimmyP a line to see what info he has

The M1 was the USA Mongoose entry bike with low end parts, much like the uk eqiverlant Grand Prix. The bike came with Steel Pro Class rims, Steel Mongoose bars and chromo Main frame with steel forks.

I would say the bike in the pic is worth £120, go for it
